Dan looks very focused yet relaxed, less of the nervous tension I've seen previously.

I think this is an extremely salient point. The Evo on court is still the same guy, you still get the sarcastic banter and the self criticism but it has been dialled down to the point where it no longer has a negative impact. He looks like he is in control of his emotions and using then to his benefit rather than being controlled by them. He always operated on a fine line between playing well when angry and self destructing through irrational rage, he finally seems to have been able to harness the former without succumbing to the latter.

Very different match to yesterday with Ito playing a much more patient game than Becker. Working so far for him, as he breaks Evo to lead *2-1.

I only have half an eye on this, but good to see that Dan has just broken back.

But Evo breaks straight back, sealing the game with a lob of DC Final winning proportions.

Well well. From 1-2* down, Evo takes 5 games in a row, breaking Ito 3 times to take the opening set 6-2

Still some way to go but the sooner Evans is playing regularly in ATP events the better, he's too good for this level.
